What Music are You Listening To? - 67, the Summer of Love

[thetrooper]

What’s this? A punk song with decent sound quality? Must be some punks trying to catch up with the masters;

 

[thetrooper]

The very definition of modern pop;

 

[Quintillus]

Simple Man.

The very definition of classic rock? I'll take classic rock over modern pop any day.

Greatly amused by the contrast between posts 1012 and 1013.

By the way, this serial thread has long run its course, @Smellincoffee snagged the 1000th post

[thetrooper]

These clowns on a comeback?

Don’t look back in anger my arse!

Incidentally watching Patsy Kensit getting the treatment by Mel Gibson in LW2.

 

[Kyriakos]

The ever-trashy late 90s britpop scene

Oh, there are some gems though;

At least Brett and Jarvis never beat up their ‘girlfriends’?

 

[Kyriakos]

Suede was the emoest of them all, though + collapsed when their guitarist left

 

[thetrooper]

Talking about EMO

Here’s a complete army of them;

 

[Kyriakos]

Maybe this band was also a reaction to the spirit of the rest of britpop?

But when I think of britpop, it is summarized in this, which simply was all narc attitude and laziness ^^

Finally listend to Morgan Wade's new album, "Obsessed". FWIW, my bedroom has a corner that's MW shrine, with signed lyrics cards, posters, VIP lanyards, etc. I liked it. Many powerful songs, but the general gist is....tragic. Kinda prefer the more upbeat sound of "Psychopath". Do not construe this as a criticism of MW, though. I will never criticize MW.

I knew I loved you / That Halloween
When I saw you and I got mad
You came in with someone that wasn't me
And I never felt pain that bad
I cried in my car at the likker store
And I almost relapsed
We were friiends, but I wanted more
I was hopin' you wanted me back
And you met me for coffee at my favorite place
Right by the railroad tracks
You touched my hand
And you felt insane
Our hearts didn't cut us no slack
You never get over
a Love like that
